I love the donation idea, thats really great! My cousin, at her wedding last Sept, she made an announcement that in lieu of favors, they made a donation in every guests name to the local SPCA. That was really sweet too. |
That is a great idea! Last year another friend did the same sort of thing, but made a donation to the Canadian Cancer Society! It was a nice touch, because I rarely take favours at weddings anyway, unless they're something useable lol! We got coasters at one wedding, which I love, but I don't really like chocolate or sweets so I rarely take any of the food type favors!
So the bridal dress store has made more mistakes!!! I can't believe they can screw up so many dresses for one wedding! To recap: My dress came in a month late, one bridesmaid dress was not even ordered. It was finally ordered just before the first one came in, so the second was well over a month late. Both came with the wrong color belts and I had issues getting them to change them free of charge to the right color.
Then I ordered flower girl dresses. The week after ordering them I got a phone call saying actually, those dresses are discontinued, so can I find another kind?? I found a second flower girl dress I loved more than the first. They ordered two, for my two flower girls. They came in last week. My girls are sisters, a year apart. One is 8, one is 7. They are normal size, but the dress sizes run small. Anyways, the sizes that came in were 12 and 6
I had the girls try them on this weekend. The 12 fit the 8 year old perfectly! The 6 would not even zip up!!! SO I took the dress and the girl back on Monday and they measured and figured there was a 3-inch gap at the top of the zipper, and ended up having to order a 10 instead! That was ordered yesterday, and the wedding is in 2 and a half weeks.
I am just going to sit back and coast through this and hope the bridal store is stressing out about it more than I am lol!
I go for my second hair trial this weekend. I am going to try mostly down, with a bit in the front pulled back. Hopefully I can work on my veil this week and take it with me!
I am soooooooooo ready to be done! In 3 more weeks I'll be sitting in Italy with my HUSBAND without a care in the world!!!
